Great Tasting Fruit
and a Whole Lot More
When you eat fresh fruit, picked tree ripe, dripping with flavor and
sweetness, it is a great joy. It is something you remember. When most
homeowners eat supermarket fruit, picked hard, held in storage and
shipped long distances, no wonder the farmers are broke. The fruit has
little taste and buyers seem to forget to return for more. That fruit has
been bred for good looks, eye appeal and early harvest but the breeders
seem to forgot to keep the best tasting ones in the process.
The L.E. Cooke Co is in the business of growing trees that delight the
end user. Our fruit trees are selected for great taste first and foremost.
If they happen to have a long harvest season (opposite of what a farmer
wants), all the better. After all, what family can eat all the fruit from a
tree in 3-5 days?
I personally look forward to July 4th every year, not for the fireworks, but
because I know to visit the Santa Barbara Peach trees which ripen about
that time to eat some of the best tasting peaches I have ever tasted.
Sparklers for the taste palette.
The staff and workers at L.E. Cooke Co have the opportunity to taste test
great fruit from May through November. It is from our taste experiences
that the staff is creating Recommended Variety Fruit lists for the 45
Sunset Climate Zones across the United States and Canada. (Why Sunset
Zones? We explain why in detail on our web site and you can find your
zone(s) on the Sunset Zone Map).
1
There are 71 acres of scion wood orchards near the office where we make the
cuttings and collect the budwood to re-create the trees that are so favored by
homeowners and quality landscapes. The computer says there are over 26,000
records of trees, vines and shrubs in this collection. The Research Orchard is
next to the main office where we can walk down the rows letting our taste buds
select the new fruit trees to offer each year. For fruit tree selections – taste is the
highest priority.
If you look through this 84 page Catalog you will find 31 pages dedicated to edible
fruits and nuts – trees, grapes, berries and vegetables. You will also notice there
are a large number of “Heirloom” fruit trees. These are the great tasting fruit
trees that have been favorites for many, many years and, in spite of breeders’ best
efforts to replace them, have remained favorites across our land.
Our goal is to grow great tasting fruit trees and help you select the right ones for
your climate. Your success depends upon happy customers, so having a successful
fruit tree program builds your reputation by word of happy mouths.
I hope that by the time you receive this catalog that we will have completed the
Recommended Variety lists for the 45 Sunset Climate Zones and posted them
on our web site. So I guess I better wrap this up and get it to the printer. Then
I can figure out how to add those variety lists to the web site. I think you will
appreciate this tool.
There is a whole lot more in this catalog than edible fruits, but that has been the
hot button in recent years so we want to help you capitalize on it.
I am hearing early reports of good spring sales. I hope you have a great year.
God Bless. Ron Ludekens

DRIP IRRIGATION
The Cooke Book®- Recipes for Success
Conversion from Furrow Irrigation to Drip Irrigation
Persimmon Roots on Drip System - Huge difference!
DRIP IRRIGATION IMPROVES QUALITY
In recent years it was our decision to convert our field production from
furrow irrigation to drip irrigation. All our irrigation water is pumped
from underground aquifers. The original decision was purely to be good
stewards of resources and cut down on water usage because we knew the
cost of the drip would cost more than the savings of electrical costs by
pumping less water. The up-front conversion costs were huge so only a
few fields could be done each year.
What we did not anticipate was the huge improvement in our quality of
trees and root systems. Consistency of size across the rows was improved
– even in fields with weak spots such as sand streaks. When the hottest
temperatures arrive in the summer, we can irrigate whole fields at one
time and prevent trees from shutting down – again aiding the uniformity
of growth and branching.
The biggest improvements were hidden until harvest. The root systems
are vastly improved. Water and nutrients are kept in the immediate root
zone. Before food and water were in the furrows between the rows which
meant the digger blades cut off the fibrous roots out there. Now they stay
with the tree.
Some nurseries undercut their trees to accomplish this same affect but
we have accomplished the effect without running the risk of slowing tree
growth or introducing disease like crown gall to the cut roots.
Viability also improved as a result. Although viability losses are very
low, the more sensitive items have shown improvement. For example,
Persimmons used to have a very coarse root structure with little fiber.
Losses traditionally ran higher because of it. Today the trees have a mass
of fiber (see photo) and losses for those drip grown trees have dropped to
nearly nothing.
100% of the 2010-2011 crop will be harvested from fields fed on drip
and every crop from here on will be on drip. It took a huge investment
to convert nearly 1,000 acres but it is done and we are pleased with the
results. The commitment to conserve water turned into a better quality
product.
In the end, we did save money too. Drip greatly reduced tractor work,
weeding and dust suppression.

* A note about Retailers and Wholesalers: We are working on the general assumption that Retailers are selling immediately to the end user and want the most effective retail sales aids. On the other hand
Wholesalers have a wide variety of business plans, many of whom have no interest in special tags or may put on their own tags at a later date. This allows the wholesale customers to order for their needs
without providing expensive tags that might otherwise go to waste. There are no credits or discounts offered if you decide not to receive what is normally supplied at no charge.

Spur apples are naturally smaller growing trees giving semi-dwarf like sizes. Apples grow on the inside of the

Cherry Ripening Seasons
Ripening seasons for cherries depend greatly on regional climates. Cherry season in Visalia,
California is from late April through early June, with Bing ripening mid season around the second to
third week of May. Cherries suitable for milder winter areas may produce several weeks earlier. In
contrast, ripening dates for areas like Michigan and Ontario, Canada shift into June and July.

noteworthy for its remarkably high sugar content. Sweet apple flavor. When candied and dried, resembles
dates. Good in hot desert regions. Attractive shiny leaves. Ripens: Fall, mid-season, close to Lang.

flavor. A more upright grower than Li. Ripens: Fall, early to mid-season, slightly earlier than Li.

PLANTING 3 OR 4 TREES IN THE SPACE OF ONE
Through various trials and field experience, we have concluded that the desire to have a combination “cocktail” tree can better
be filled by planting 3 or 4 fruit trees in the space of one. Many “cocktail” combinations have one or more unruly varieties which
dominate the tree. This leads to ultimate customer dissatisfaction when the multiple varieties no longer exist.
See the Edible Fruit Guide or our web site at www.lecooke.com for winning combinations of fruit trees.

All commercial nut tree orchards must use pollinizers for increased production quantities. Many homeowners desire pecan trees for their beautiful shade and any small harvest of nuts is a side benefit.
# Sweating of varieties prone to dehydration will help bud break (to leaf). This is very important in dry, cold or windy climates. An enclosed greenhouse with higher humidity (but not running sprinklers) is easiest.
Another way is to lay the tree down and cover with 2-3” of wet sand, fir or pine shavings and leave until buds start to break. The warmer the temperature, the faster the buds will break. Keep the covering
material moist.

Pecan Care & Canning
90% of Pecan losses are
caused by a portion of
the extra long roots being
exposed after planting or
canning. The original root
that was below the soil line
must remain covered! We
recommend the tree gets
planted 2” deeper to allow
for settling of the soil.
Make sure new soil level
completely covers old soil line.
*ADD 50¢ per tree for bundles of 5 in sizes 5/8” or smaller.
PECAN POT
We have found a
tall, narrow, plastic
pot which should
be able to handle
Pecan roots on
trees up to 5/8"
caliper. 11"W x
24"H, 8 Gallon.
Order by October
1 and we will order
them for you and
ship with your tree

Fog = Nature’s refrigerator
We are blessed by God with an incredibly fertile growing
region in the Central Valley of California. The Sierra
Nevada mountains provide the snow pack and the
underground water to turn this deep alluvial plain from
desert into the greatest growing area on earth.
The relatively mild winters still provide enough fruitful chill
hours because of periodic bouts of Tule Fog. This fog
keeps the winter highs below the magical 45º F. threshold
for days & sometime weeks on end.
When the Pacific storms blow the fog away, the grandeur
of the Sierras are a beautiful sight!!

A lot of importance has been placed on whether a lilac is single or double, when actually from more than three feet away one can
hardly tell the difference. It has very little to do with the quality of the bloom and plant. Some of the best lilacs are single.
When holding bareroot trees, we recommend storing in coarse sand only. Use cement sand or coarser, not fine plaster sand. For best results, do not store in organic matter.
When canning, we recommend using by volume 1/3 coarse sand, 1/3 top soil, and 1/3 organic. The organic components should be pine or fir wood, or peat moss, or rice hulls.
Do not use bark, Redwood or cedar wood, or manure. Avoid any organic that turns black.

All L.E. Cooke Wisterias are budded or grafted varieties, not seedlings.
These wisteria are proven performers which usually bloom in your
nursery for exciting sales. Seedling wisteria can be disappointing for
your customers since variability creates unknown bloom types or maybe
none at all. Seedling Wisteria often take 3-7 years to first bloom.

Alders and Birch are two of the varieties that should never be topped in the nursery nor the landscape.
The central leader does not redevelop for proper growth and appearance.
bignoides ‘Nana’ (Umbrella Catalpa)
Grown on 5 foot standard.
Often called Catalpa bungei. A small, broad rounded, dense and uniform
grafted cultivar grown for its formal topiary-like appearance. This plant will
form a tight ball of heart-shaped, rich green foliage in summer. In autumn, the
foliage turns a rich, bright yellow and holds for a week on the plant. Height
10-15 ft., width 6-10 ft. but often shaped by pruning to be smaller. Cold hardy
to USDA Zone 5.
erubescens ‘Purpurea’ (Purple Catalpa)
Young leaves of this Catalpa are deep blackish-purple, turning to purple toned
green in summer. Large leaves 10-12 inches long. Clusters of white flowers
lightly speckled with yellow or purple in late spring. Height to 30-40 ft., spread
to 25-30 ft. Cold hardy to USDA Zone 5.
speciosa (Northern Catalpa) (Western Catalpa) (Hardy Catalpa)
Tall irregularly rounded, shade tree reaching heights of 40-70 ft. and narrower
spread of 20-35 ft. Large 6-12 inch leaves. Showy clusters of 2” white
flowers in late spring. Seed pods. Thrives in moist soil, but grows well in hot,
dry areas. Tolerates alkali. Cold hardy to USDA Zone 4.

Value of Shade Trees
Shade trees pay for themselves many times over as enhancements and ecological benefactors. A single well-placed shade tree adds about
$25.00 to a property’s value per year over a 40 year span. As a mature tree, it will provide beauty and cooling shade resulting in energy
savings of up to $29.00 and air purification totaling 330 lbs. of carbon dioxide per year. USDA Forest Service, Davis, CA.

1251010* A stunning display of semi-double rose red flowers. Lovely for cut flowers.
Semi-upright grower with round head. Growth to 25-30 ft. high and wide.
Drought Tolerant
Prunus mume has been popular in China and Japan for over a thousand years and is now becoming very popular in the U.S. It is the longest lived of the flowering fruit species. It flowers very early in
the season, January in mild areas and Feb-March in colder areas. The flowers may be single or double, either pink, white, or red and are fragrant with spicy cinnamon scent. The flowers are borne along
the length of last year’s new stem growth which can reach 6 feet or more in a single season. The tree will form a multitude of apricot-like fruits that are edible, but quite sour. The leaves are a glossy deep
green. To keep the tree from being ungainly it should be pruned. Half of the new stems should be removed each season leaving a 6 inch stub and the remaining half of the stems should be reduced to
the 6 inch stub the following season. Sort of a rotation of new growth. This pruning may take place while the tree is in bloom and the branches brought into the house for enjoyment.

The L.E. Cooke Co currently maintains a scion wood orchard covering 69 acres and contains over 26,000 computer
records for every tree, shrub and vine. Before we ever cut propagation wood or buds off a tree, it is verified true to
name. Every winter the majority of trees are heavily pruned to force vegetative growth for the juvenile wood necessary
for the propagative material. We do not depend upon cutting from commercial orchards or from the production nursery.
Chances of introducing error is too great doing it that way.
The costs of maintaining these orchards are enormous but part of our commitment to Excellence.
